         SECTION 3.01. ORDERS AND TERMS OF SALE. Distributor and its Affiliates

written orders for the purchase of the Product in the Territory, Pfizer shall
forward such orders to Distributor as soon as practicable.

         SECTION 3.03. MANUFACTURING AND FORECASTS.

         (a) Pfizer and its Affiliates shall have the sole and exclusive
authority and responsibility for the manufacture of the Product. Distributor

         (b) Pfizer will provide to Distributor quantities of 4mg and 8mg
Systems of Product (both commercial quantities and samples) set forth as the

of the amount forecast in the most recent prior rolling forecast.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributor shall not be required to meet these
requirements for the calendar quarter immediately following the calendar quarter
in which a Competing Product enters the market.

         (c) Distributor shall purchase hereunder the following minimum
aggregate commercial quantities of 4mg and 8mg Systems of Product in each
Contract Year:

                                       6
<PAGE>

be relieved of its obligation in such Contract Year solely to the extent by
which Pfizer's deliveries are less than such minimum aggregate commercial
quantities. In addition, if (x) a Person files an application for a Competing
Product and (y) ALZA or Pfizer, in its sole discretion, brings a Proceeding
against such Person and resolves such Proceeding by, among other things,
granting to such Person the exclusive right to sell and distribute Pfizer's
non-branded doxazosin mesylate extended release product in the Territory prior
to the end of the 3rd Contract Year and (z) such Person commences commercial
sales of the Competing Product prior to the end of the 3rd Contract Year, then
Distributor shall be relieved of its minimum purchase obligations on a pro rata
basis for the Contract Year which the commercial sale of the Competing Product
commences and for all subsequent Contract Years.

         SECTION 3.04. ACCEPTANCE OF ORDERS. Distributor shall submit Firm
Orders to Pfizer against the forecasts via facsimile transmission or e-mail, and
Pfizer shall confirm all of Distributor's Firm Orders by facsimile transmission
or e-mail within seven (7) days after receipt of such Firm Orders.

         SECTION 3.05. SUPPLY OBLIGATIONS. (a) All of Pfizer's obligations to
supply quantities of the Product pursuant to SECTION 3.03 shall be contingent
upon its receipt of NDA Approval. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything herein to
the contrary, Pfizer shall use its Commercially Reasonable Efforts to supply the
Product, having expiration dating of at least [xxxx]* at the time of delivery to
Distributor, in sufficient quantities to meet all demands for the Product in the
Territory in accordance with the then current Firm Order and the procedures set
forth in SECTION 3.03.

         (b) Pfizer shall deliver Product to Distributor pursuant to Purchase
Orders no later than ten (10) days after Distributor's requested delivery dates.
Pfizer shall promptly notify Distributor in writing if for any reason Pfizer has
reason to believe that it will be unable to supply on a timely basis (in
accordance with Pfizer's normal and customary practices) the quantities of
Product ordered pursuant to SECTION 3.03 above (a "Supply Failure Notice").

         (c) If Pfizer has delivered a Supply Failure Notice to Distributor
pursuant to subsection (b), then Pfizer will as soon as practicable after the
delivery of the Supply Failure Notice, supply Distributor pursuant to the
provisions of the following sentence until such time Pfizer is once again
capable of supplying the quantities of Product ordered by Distributor. [xxxx]*

         (d) [xxxx]*Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributor will not be
entitled to the benefits of this Section 3.05(d) if, at the time it placed the
first Firm Order which was not filled during any applicable period, it was not
in compliance with the provisions of Section 5.04. If, following Pfizer's
failure to supply Product, Distributor receives backorders from any of the three
major wholesalers, Distributor promptly shall so inform Pfizer in writing and,
in connection therewith, also certify in writing as to its compliance with
Section 5.04 as set forth in this subsection (d).

         (e) For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that Pfizer's
obligations to expend its Commercially Reasonable Efforts pursuant to Section
3.05(a) shall not require Pfizer to expand manufacturing capacity at its plant
in Brooklyn, New York (where the Product is to be manufactured), materially
interfere with its existing commitments to third parties to produce products at

                                       7

its plant in Brooklyn, New York, nor to license, contract or otherwise arrange
for any other plants to manufacture the Product.

         (f) Except as set forth in Section 3.05(d), Distributor's sole remedy
in the event Pfizer fails to supply Product in accordance with Firm Orders
furnished to Pfizer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be to
bring suit to recover its Losses in the event of a breach of Section 3.05(c) (if
and to the extent Pfizer fails to comply with its obligations thereunder and
Distributor is damaged by reason of its resulting inability and failure to fill
bona fide customer orders). Distributor hereby waives any and all other claims
(including, without limitation, claims of breach of contract) and remedies
(including the remedy of termination of this Agreement) that it might otherwise
have available to it upon Pfizer's failure to supply the quantities of Product
ordered by Distributor hereunder on a timely basis.

Distributor of any new instructions or specifications required by the FDA or the
FFDCA. In the event Pfizer cannot reasonably manufacture Product in accordance
with Distributor's instructions and the Specifications, Pfizer shall so advise
Distributor.

         SECTION 3.08. SAMPLES. (a) Following launch of the Product and in
support of Distributor's promotional activities hereunder, Pfizer shall provide
Distributor with Product samples as set forth in Section 3.03 above.

         (b) The price for each Product sample initially shall be [xxxx]* per
System. The price of Product samples shall be adjusted effective as of each
January 1st following NDA Approval by such percentage increase in the Producer
Price Index as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of
Labor Statistics (the "PPI") over the immediately preceding 12 month period. The
price adjustment under this Section 3.08(b) shall be notified to Distributor not
later than June 30th of each year and shall be retroactively effective to
January 1st of that same year and shall apply to all firm orders for samples
received on or after said January lst. In the event that Pfizer fails to provide
notice of any PPI increase by June 30th of a given year, any such increase shall
only be effective as of the date such notice is actually given and shall only
apply to Firm Orders received on or after such date. If the PPI is not available
for any period, the most similar available index shall be used.

         (c) Distributor shall store and distribute samples in full compliance,
and otherwise fully comply, with all applicable Laws, including the requirements
of the Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987, as amended (the "PDMA").
Distributor will maintain those records required by the PDMA and all other Laws
with respect to the Product samples. Distributor shall be responsible for the
filing of any necessary reports to FDA in connection with the PDMA with respect

         (b) In the event that the quotient obtained by dividing Net Sales by
the number of commercial Systems sold (the "NET SALES PER SYSTEM") in any
calendar quarter experiences an independently verifiable decrease of at least
[xxxx]* from the previous calendar quarter as a result of Extraordinary Market
Events (as hereinafter defined), the parties shall in good faith attempt to
determine a new reduced Per System Fee for the Products available for commercial
sale. In the absence of such agreement, the Per System Fee, effective as of the
start of the calendar quarter following which the Net Sales Per System
experienced the requisite decrease, shall be reduced by a percentage equal to
the Net Sales Per System percentage decreases from the previous calendar quarter
as a result of the Extraordinary Market Events. Extraordinary Market Events
shall be limited to (i) reductions (in a calendar quarter from the previous
calendar quarter) in the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) (or any successor
schedule that will reflect the effective price paid for brand pharmaceuticals by
governmental programs taking into account the manufacturer rebates received by
States and/or other governmental entities) of each of the [xxxx]* (or if there

prostate hyperplasia (BPH), and/or (ii) governmentally required changes in the
rebates, discounts, allowances, reimbursements or other changes, such as price
controls, in the manner in which pharmaceutical products are presently sold to
customers, including but not limited to the broader non-state or federal markets
or the amounts required to be paid to state and/or other governmental agencies,
such as the Department of Veteran Affairs. The reduction of [xxxx]* in the Net
Sales Per System to Distributor may result from either (i) or (ii) or a
combination of (i) and (ii) in such quarter from the previous calendar quarter,
provided however, that if the cause of the price reduction is reflected in both
(i) and (ii), only one of such reductions shall be included when determining
whether the [xxxx]* threshold has been met. Published sources such as the FSS or
the Medicaid Rebate Net Price program (in the case of clause (ii)) or data
generated by third party vendors such as IMS Health or NDC Health (in the case
of clause (i), may serve as an independently verifiable source. Distributor may
so exercise its right to a price reduction pursuant to this subsection (b) no
more than once during the Term. If there is a reduction of the Per System Fee
pursuant to this subsection (b) and there are subsequent increases in the Net
Sales Per System received by Distributor during the Term, then the Per System
Fee shall be proportionately increased upon each subsequent increase in Net
Sales Per System, but not above [xxxx]* per System, subject to increase pursuant
to the provisions of Section 7.01(c).

         (c) In the event Distributor believes that the provisions of this
subsection (b) are applicable, it will promptly inform Pfizer in writing of its
belief and furnish Pfizer calculations of the Net Sales Per System for the
applicable calendar quarters, along with copies of the published sources which
support such belief. In addition, following any reduction of the Per System Fee
pursuant to this subsection (b), Distributor shall promptly notify Pfizer of any
subsequent increase in the amount it charges Per System during the Term.

         SECTION 5.04. MINIMUM INVENTORY. During the Term, at all times from and
after the date of the initial delivery to be made pursuant to the Launch Date
Firm Order, Distributor will keep on hand inventories of the Product that will
be sufficient to meet [xxxx]* demand from customers for the Product based upon
Distributor's good faith estimates of future sales. At the end of each calendar
month, Distributor will determine and provide Pfizer with the quantities of each
system of the Product sold by Distributor during such calendar month.
Additionally, Distributor will provide Pfizer with ending inventory quantities
at the end of each calendar month. Such information will be set forth in a

         SECTION 6.01. For each Contract Year, Distributor shall keep such

Pfizer and reasonably acceptable to Distributor (the "INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT")
for the sole purpose of verifying the number of details performed by Distributor
pursuant to this Agreement. Distributor acknowledges and agrees that KPMG is

performed more than twice per Contract Year. The Independent Accountant shall
not reveal to Pfizer the details of such review, except for such information as
is required to be disclosed under this Agreement, and shall be subject to

Year) (the "Minimum Detailing Requirement"). Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, if Pfizer fails to supply Product ordered by Distributor in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement and such failure makes it not commercially
feasible for Distributor to fulfill the Minimum Detailing Requirement, then
Distributor shall be relieved of its obligation during the period of the supply
failure solely to the extent of the number of details below the Minimum
Detailing Requirement that Distributor was not able to perform by reason of

Distributor's acceptance of such shipment and shall constitute a waiver of any
claims Distributor may have against Pfizer with respect to such shipment
subject, however, to Distributor's right to reject such Product for latent
defects discovered by Distributor or Distributor's customer(s) after such
stipulated period has expired. If Pfizer agrees that a Product does not conform
to the Specifications, Distributor shall return the non-conforming Product to
Pfizer, at a location designated by Pfizer and at Pfizer's expense. Pfizer, at
no expense to Distributor, shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to replace
any non-conforming Product within the shortest possible time.

         (c) In the event Pfizer does not agree with Distributor's determination
that a Product fails to meet Specifications, the Parties shall, in good faith,
attempt to resolve such dispute. In the event the Parties cannot resolve said
dispute among themselves they may submit the matter to an independent third
party testing laboratory agreeable to both Distributor and Pfizer for a binding
opinion. The expenses of obtaining the binding opinion shall be equally shared
by Distributor and Pfizer. In the event that the Parties do not agree to submit
the dispute to a testing laboratory, the Parties shall remain free to pursue any
legal, equitable or administrative remedies to which they may be entitled.

         (d) Distributor will permit Pfizer's personnel, upon reasonable notice,
to visit at reasonable intervals, and for reasonable durations during regular
business hours, any facility used by Distributor for the storage and
distribution of the Product and will allow such personnel to review and make
copies of any relevant records in connection therewith.

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

         SECTION 15.01. INDEMNIFICATION BY DISTRIBUTOR. Distributor agrees to
indemnify, protect, defend and hold Pfizer and its directors, officers,
employees and agents harmless from and against any Losses that they may incur at
any time arising out of (i) Distributor's breach of this Agreement or of any
warranty made by Distributor to Pfizer in this Agreement or (ii) Distributor's
promotional, marketing, advertising, detailing and educational activities and
from its storage, handling and distribution of the Product supplied to it by
Pfizer.

         SECTION 15.02. INDEMNIFICATION BY PFIZER. Pfizer agrees to indemnify,
protect, defend and hold Distributor and its directors, officers, employees and
agents harmless from and against any Losses that they may incur at any time
arising out of (i) Pfizer's breach of this Agreement or of any warranty made by
Pfizer to Distributor in this Agreement or (ii) Pfizer's supply of damaged or
defective Product that does not meet the Specifications authorized under the NDA

[xxxx]*. In addition, Pfizer shall not be liable to, or be required to
indemnify, Distributor under this Section for an aggregate amount of Losses

         SECTION 15.03. JOINT INDEMNIFICATION. SECTION 15.01 and SECTION 15.02
notwithstanding, if the Losses arising from any Product Liability Claim are a
result of Pfizer's negligence, willful misconduct or a breach of this Agreement,
Pfizer shall bear responsibility for all the Losses arising under such Product
Liability Claim. If the Losses arising from any Product Liability Claim are a
result of Distributor's negligence, willful misconduct or a breach of this
Agreement, Distributor shall bear responsibility for all the Losses arising

* Filed under application for confidential treatment.



                                       25
<PAGE>

will notify the other party in writing of such Product Liability Claim. Pfizer
shall have the right to defend against and control the defense and settlement of
such Product Liability Claim, provided that (a) Pfizer (i) shall assume the
conduct of such defense within thirty (30) days of notice of such claim or suit
and (ii) shall not compromise or settle such claim or suit without the written
approval of Distributor to the extent such claim or suit involves equitable or
non-monetary relief legally binding upon Distributor or forces Distributor to
take any action (but in all other instances shall consult with Distributor prior
to settlement, if practical), and (b) Distributor shall have the right to
participate in the defense of such claim or suit at its own expense. Distributor
shall not compromise or settle such claim or suit or make any admissions
concerning such claim or suit (unless required by applicable Law) without the
prior written approval of Pfizer.

         SECTION 15.04. PROCEDURES. The party seeking indemnification under this
ARTICLE XV (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") agrees to give prompt notice to the party
against whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") of the assertion or
commencement of any Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may be sought under
such Section and will provide the Indemnifying Party such information with
respect thereto that the Indemnifying Party may reasonably request. The failure
to give such notice shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of any liability
hereunder only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has suffered actual
prejudice thereby. Except as provided in SECTION 15.03 above, the Indemnifying
Party shall have the right to participate in and control the defense of any such
action, suit or proceeding at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall, if
requested by the Indemnifying Party, cooperate in all reasonable respects in
such defense. The Indemnified Party shall be entitled at its own expense to
participate in such defense and to employ separate counsel for such purpose. The
Indemnifying Party shall not be liable under this ARTICLE XV for any settlement
effected without its consent of any Proceeding in respect of which indemnity may
be sought hereunder. No party to this Agreement shall enter into any compromise
or settlement which commits the other party to take, or to forbear to take, any
action without the other party's prior written consent.

         SECTION 15.05. INSURANCE PROCEEDS; TAXES. Any indemnification hereunder
shall be made net of any insurance proceeds recovered or recoverable by the
Indemnified Party from third parties and net of any net tax benefits
attributable to such Losses. If, following the payment to the Indemnified Party
of any amount under this ARTICLE XV, such Indemnified Party recovers any
insurance proceeds in respect of the claim for which such indemnification
payment was made, the Indemnified Party shall promptly pay an amount equal to
the amount of such proceeds (but not exceeding the amount of such
indemnification payment) to the Indemnifying Party.

         SECTION 15.06. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, indemnification hereunder only shall include
liability for any Indirect Losses to the extent the Indemnified Party pays such
amount to a third party in respect of a claim of such third party. Except as
expressly provided in the preceding sentence, no party to this Agreement shall
be liable to or otherwise responsible to any other party hereto or, as
applicable, Pfizer or Distributor for Indirect Losses that arise out of or
relate to this Agreement or the performance or breach hereof.

New York State court sitting in New York City and (ii) waives any objection
which it may have at any time to the laying of venue of any Proceeding brought

warranties for Pfizer or its Affiliates in any way without the prior express
written approval of Pfizer, except as may be otherwise provided herein. Further,

venture between the parties hereto.
